Cloud Market Will Win More of Australia ICT Spend 9.4% Proportion of total AUD million Cloud services will not replace traditional delivery models in all situations Though cloud is not a large part of the overall spend, it’s growing much faster This rapid growth is attractive & causing new entrants to emerge, and non-traditional IT vendors to pay attention The age of influence for the product vendors is waning 22.5% CAGR growth to 2014 5.5% * DC spend is categorised by server/storage hardware and software 13

90. Essential Guidance for PartnersQuestions to be Addressed Private Cloud: Have you got the right in-house skills? Are vendors providing incentives & training for partners to develop specific skill-sets for the private cloud? Are you able to leverage any productized professional services through from vendors to address private cloud type of requirements? Do you have reasonable GTM conflict sufficiently addressed from vendors as you build out your own consulting capabilities? Public Cloud: How are you drafting commercial agreements with particular focus on SLAs? How are you communicating your value proposition over going direct to the vendor to your customers? What training and education are you receiving on the public cloud? What about new consulting and integration skill-sets? Are you involved in testing new partner programs to resell public cloud services? 34

Notas del editor
This is a lot of change to consider but there is yet another disruptive dimension as well – we mentioned the increase in mobile computing users – among humans, but we also need to recognize that in terms of overall computing and communications volume, there is a major transformation taking place related to the rise of virtualization, smart meters and embedded computing. The numbers you can see on this slide – which are estimates for 2010 are pretty staggering. (read a couple of data points)But it is the one on the bottom right hand corner you really need to consider – 7 billion communicating devices and 5 billion are not computers
We expect many organizations will end up with hybrid environments where they opt to use public services for some functions, where the public nature and global reach of the business make sense, but will rely on internal private cloud architectures for critical business activities.
Definition: Subscription to and usage of Cloud Services that are delivered over a virtual private network, where a private instance of the service is based on a common virtual infrastructure model, and wherein an integrated SLA with business relevant metrics is offered.Building blocks of the evolutionary component of the cloud + disruptive attributes
The hosting business is being transformed by cloud computing, new entrants can offer attractive new services and the market continues to evolve.Cloud impacts the economics of model of hosting in key ways:more difficult capacity management and potentially lower returns on invested capital;challenges in analyzing deal profitability and a shift in how to achieve good margins in managed hosting;uncertain software licensing costs; andincreased unpredictability of revenue.Service providers must determine how to meet the new technical and business challenges, identify the products that can be sold now, market successfully to early adopters, and create a foundation for future products and mainstream adoption.New offerings are emerging to compete with traditional hosting services, eg: utility hosting, virtual data center hosting, cloud hosting, and platform as a service (PaaS).The initial challenges of cloud evolution are centered on installation and provisioning. These are business challenges, not just technical challenges, requiring process and system integration across the service provider organization.The early adopters of cloud infrastructure services are existing hosting customers, Web 2.0 startups, research organizations and Type "A" enterprises. Mainstream adoption will require decreasing the real and perceived risks of moving operations into the cloud.RecommendationsFocus on fully automating sales quotes and provisioning, and driving down quote and installation times. Immediately offer utility hosting. Even if you are not prepared to offer a virtualized platform, you must offer flexible pricing, or you will be at a severe competitive disadvantage.If you do not have virtualization expertise, consider acquiring a small provider of cloud hosting services with strong engineering expertise and tools for managing a shared, virtualized platform.Include complementary network services that enhance remotely hosted services, such as WAN optimization or an application delivery network.
